tailed for the purpose, and at about IL 40 O'Clock
arrested Lawniski at his home after a struggle,
IN which strange man struck at him with a
Kettle, and started his prisoner for the police
station. LawniSkis wife went with him, and the
two walked together clasped in each others
arms and engaged In earnest conversation
In their native language, while the policeman,
Mr.. Brennan, and the latters son walked behind

OF four men to lift, fashioned roughly to mt

modate the head and feet, while near the middle
it is wide an ordinary coffin ut the broadcast
